It’s a big deal to be at school every day all year long. At LES, that kind of dedication can earn you a gift card or even a new bike, thanks to our friends at the Pawnee County Coop and Kim Barnes! We know things come up, so we also celebrated students who missed just a half day, one day, or two days. Way to show up this year, LES! #larnedpride #lesfamily #showingupmatters
Don’t forget! The LHS Cheer Squad will be hosting a car wash fundraiser this Saturday, May 24 during Santa Fe Trail Days! 🧼🧡
